<p>Hello, I want to have a poke at <a href="https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/85204">#85204</a>. This is about inherent associated type. But i don't know whether this would be too hard for me to solve. Could someone do some basic evaluation on whether this would be beginner-friendly?(If there's some basic mentoring notes that would be great)</p>

<p>Also, should the GAT feature gate cover IGAT? Or should it have its own feature gate?</p>

<p><span class="user-mention" data-user-id="116458">@Charles Lew</span> Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm, interesting question. I'm not sure how hard it would be to fix. To be honest, I'm inclined not to do it right now, because it's kind of a cross-cutting thing and I'd rather wait until some of the other initiatives are more underway. If you have energy, maybe we could direct at towards some of the blockers around named impl trait or GATs?</p>
